NOT IN RIC
|
UNLISTED ISSUE. Specimen was known to the both authors of RIC VI and VII. Sutherland in RIC VI assumes that this coin belongs to RIC VII: "R.I.C. vii does not include among the issues of Ticinum after 313 the variety Constan-tinus Aug, r., laur., helm. (with chin-strap), cuir., Victoriae laetae princ perp, two Victories facing each other, one inscribing Vot X on shield held by the other above garlanded column (B.M.). This issue seems, however, to fall more suitably at the decennalia than at the quinquennalia". Sutherland was right but unfortunately coin is listed neither in RIC VI nor in RIC VII. Cf. also TICINUM 25 (medallion of 2 solidi from the British Museum Collection; reg. no. 1896,0608.99).
Listed in Depeyrot (p. 72, no. 16/13). Coin should be listed after TICINUM 32.
